So this is just minor tweaks (not that anonymity is not a bad idea per say) to the already despised status quo.

How is this going to broaden the application pool to include neurodiverse candidates and not just pander to the credentialist notion that rote leaning to get a piece of paper makes you the best candidate.

Can you help me understand how I can help "broaden the application pool to include neurodiverse candidates?"

We're only in private beta now, but the goal is that when we launch, it will be open for any person to apply to. I don't see our model ever being some that "panders to the credentialist notion that rote leaning to get a piece of paper makes you the best candidate." It's the exact opposite, really.

I'm on the autism spectrum, and I like hearing about your approach.
